I came across some of these little factoids just recently, and some of them I’ve known for a while, but they all add up to an interesting insight about shopping for books.

Gargoyle Sweat…Delivered.

A few days ago I was talking about how Carson’s Night came to be, and promised the full story later. I’ve updated and re-uploaded the article, “The Blood, Sweat and Gritty-Eyed Truth Behind Carson’s Night“, and linked it to the Articles page, which is looking pretty empty right now — updating and uploading articles will
